Remove the lower leaves from each cutting, dip the cut end in rooting hormone if desired, and insert it into the medium. Keep the medium consistently moist but not waterlogged, and provide bright, indirect light. Roots typically form within a few weeks. Once rooted, transplant the cuttings into individual pots or directly into the garden after the danger of frost has passed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGeraniums prefer full sun but can tolerate partial shade, especially in hot climates. Water regularly during the growing season, but avoid overwatering as they are susceptible to root rot. Fertilize monthly with a balanced fertilizer to encourage continuous blooming. Deadhead spent flowers to promote new blooms and maintain a tidy appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e3 live unrooted cuttings, each approximately 6 inches long, of Geranium Pelargonium 'Red'.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67776116883766,"sku":"FOLIA-159","price":45.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.6682501100_5td2.jpg?v=1792467839","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/red-geranium-pelargonium-3-live-unrooted-cuttings-bright-red-blooms","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
